The Cost of War

In US taxpayer dollars, in Iraq. Thanks to Ralph Ritchie for the link. Not included in the counter: dead Americans and Iraqis; maimed Iraqis and Americans; billions in Iraqi property destruction; the hundreds of thousands of dead children and old people from the US starvation blockade; a bigger, meaner US empire, etc.
